<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Good morning all. I am landing here again following a spell on the list when I worked at XMA in the UK. Hello again.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I have a use case of having a remote office, which should be able to have a common storage area with a main office.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I recently worked on GPFS with AFM to achieve this at another company (not really relevant to this list).</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I at first though Geo Replication would be ideal fo rthis use case, however further reading says that it is suitable for making a slave only copy</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">for disaster recovery. Ie. there is no 'two way' syncing of files.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Would anyone be able to comment on the New Style Geo Replication which has come along in Gluster version 4?</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">What is the status please, and is it a suitable method for enabling a share at a remote office which syncs either way?</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">thankyou</p>
